Mr. President , all members are present. Please place your right hand over your heart join me in reciting the pledge of allegiance. [pledge of allegiance] thank you. Behalf of the board, i like to acknowledge the staff of sfgov tv who record each of our meetings and make the transcripts available to the public online.
